The Highest Carrier Frequency for Stratix III

Dears All, Greetings, I was just wondering about how high I can get as an output from the the Stratix III Development Kit as a carrier frequency. I know I can use two ways to generate that...

Thank you for fast reply Kaz ... Yes, I have a signal to be up-converted inside the FPGA. I don't know about serdes, if it possible or not!

now my question is how high frequency,roughly, I can get from (LUT or NCO) as a carrier frequency. I tried to make the up conversion in Matlab and just store it at the LUT but I realized that I'm having different frequency from the HSMC output.. so I started to wonder about how high I can get!
